Poptimism has gone too far. I'm sorry but if you rank 'Rare' and to be quite frank, 'Chromatica' above 'Fetch the Bolt Cutters' you should not be writing about music. 

Chromatica is amazing. There’s a reason why it’s on every best of 2020 list.

Everyone has the right to voice their own opinion. You can’t tell them to stop writing about music just because their choices are different than yours.

Surely criticism as a profession hinges upon the idea that some opinions are worth more than others? That the critic's discerning taste and knowledge of their subject means they are better equipped than the average listener to make an accurate evaluation of the quality of a work of art? The man in the street has every right to voice his opinion that Kidz Bopz are better than Mozart, but there's not much of an argument that he should be paid for his opinion.

Chromatica is a good album. But theres a reason why it's not being placed above Fetch the Bolt Cutters in most best of 2020 lists by serious music publications...

Art is subjective. If a journalist wants to write about Kidz Bopz being better than Mozart then I’d love to hear their opinion. I might not agree with it, but I will respect it. It already sounds more interesting than some hipster trying to convince us that Indie records are better than pop music. 
 

Ps. FTBC is one of my absolute favourites from this year :heart:

Has this happened with other Gaga albums before?

No, this is definitely the first time. I’m shocked myself but I feel the album has really resonated with people during the pandemic.
